    Some more ideas:

    MM’s beanies
    Regina’s mirrors (Can’t believe nobody asked for them, yet!)
    Charming’s/David’s smile (dito o.ô)
    August’s mysteriousness
    Storybrooke’s school emblem (as seen on the uniforms)
    The Storybrooke sign (maybe the keeper could move it, so nobody reaches the border? 😉 )
    Red’s turning/transforming eyes
    The round table with the animals/zodiac, or whatever those are, in King George’s/Charming’s castle

    Wow, I could go on and on.

    Today I’ll take something cool I just saw in The Fruit of the Poisonous Tree, which I just re-watched. This really cool Magister sign over Regina’s office door:

    For all that don’t know, magister is the Latin word for master. Nice touch I think. Master Regina, muhahaha! Although it should really be Magistra as Regina is a woman, but who cares about technicalities. Except Rumpel/Gold, of course.

    That is a good one. I really like that one too. I love the scene where Emma asks Mary to have faith in her and i love the scene where Emma lays on her bed and talks about what it might be like to find her parents and then tells her that Henry thinks Mary is her mother.

    Yes!
    Btw, the scene with Emma telling MM about Henry’s theory:
    …
    MM: I have a kid. You’d think I’d remember that.
    Emma: Yeah, you’d think.
    …
    Well, I don’t have any kids yet, but don’t women always say that giving birth is one of those situations you never forget? It’s one of the biggest physical and emotional acts for a woman. MM not remember just shows how incredibly powerful the Dark Curse is!

    And again this is not really Emma related, just seems a waste opening another thread. Thinking about Emma I just have to think about MM/Snow and the curse and everything else …

    I actually think Emma is going to have an issue when she really believes that they are her parents. Though i think eventually she will get over it. I think that Mary already seems very like her mother. Emma is a lot of times the awkward kid talking to her mother about different issues and i think that they sometimes seem like friends with Emma telling Mary to do the right thing. I actually think that it seems like a very real adult relationship between a mother and daughter. Though i could totally see Emma believing and running away because she can’t handle it.

    Yes, I like these thoughts very much. The more I think about it, the more I am convised that the best way for Emma to be able to handle it, is her finding out before MM&David. If MM&David or just one of them comes up to her and tells her what they remember, she’ll never believe them. We’ve seen her reaction to people believing many times now. If she believed though and MM&David did not yet remember, she’d probably first be really awkward around them, but would also try to make them remember. She’d be afraid of course, but I think that would be a huge incentive.

    Yes and I can see MM and David both convincing her to stay to help. Hopefully by then NN and David will realize they are Snow and Charming and now help their daughter Emma help them fight evil and a family together. They gave her her best shot nand returned, so they need to convince Emma her best shot now is to stay with them and Henry.

    They would have to be really convincing. Then again, we still have four episodes, so who knows what’s gonna happen. If they remember and Emma believes (or the other way around) then yes, MM&David/Snow&Charming (whatever …) would do anything in their power to make Emma stay and fight with them.

    That’s one of my absolute favourite scenes of the show! My favourite being Snow trying to kill that blue bird, lol. I re-watch it every time I need something to cheer me up. I love the way MM looks at Emma while picking the flowers out of the trash and latter says “Just because I don’t get emotional over men–”. <3

    We really need a character appreciation forum, lol.

    Back to Emma:

    Do you guys think she would ever get over it that her mother is the same age as she? Assuming she finally believes, of course. It’s rather harsh. We know they already do have a sort of mother-daughter and vice-versa, best-friend relationship. They do get along, but would Emma be satisfied with that? Yes, she’d have a family and a sort of mother, but she’d never actually have “real” mom. On the other hand it would still be much more than she ever had before, so …

    I love the new timeline and also the way of dating things (Before Curse)!

    Oh, I know, I’ll still think of it as BE for myself. :mrgreen:

    I didn’t mean that I don’t like calling it BE; I just meant that I like the idea of using that day as a kind of “zero hour” for time in FTL. No insult intended. 😳

    No no, I didn’t see it as an insult at all! I just thought you thought I didn’t think of BC as being before curse. So, don’t worry. 🙂

    Anyway. I’ve re-watched 7:15 AM yesterday and thought about the time-line and where it fit. It obviously has to be between King Leopold’s death and Snow eating the apple. The thing is that I realised that Regina actually kills the Blind Witch through the mirror. She sets fire in the oven and the witch burns. When Regina tries to enact the Dark Curse for the first time, there’s a blind witch among the darkest creatures. I know she looks differently (and probably is a different actress), but I always just assumed it was supposed to be the Blind Witch and as they didn’t quite know how they’d portray the Hänsel&Gretel story, they decided for another look. But if that is true, then there’s an inconsistency. As the first try to enact the Dark Curse happened after Snow ate the apple and woke up again … Can I just assume it’s a different witch, might the witch actually not have died and come out all shrivelled or …

    On the issue of using real dates: I think we should do 5 year (or even 10) steps. We still can put the events that happened in the same period in an order by adding 1st, 2nd, etc. That way we have a larger tolerance (margin, scope, don’t really know which expression is the right one in this case) to move in.

    If anything Grace is a pig. Like a truffle pig. They are able to smell the truffles under the earth … :mrgreen:

    Oh yes! Wizard Chess would be awesome!
    Haha, I suck at potions and also at the duelling … Which is why I haven’t been online at all the past months. We can give it a try against each other one of these days. Since we both suck … 😉

    Well, I would be worried if someone who has done so much to hurt me, decided to curse everyone to take their happiness. And then nothing happens for a while! The anxiety of knowing that something is coming, but not when, can be worse than when it happens immediately. So, I can see it only being nine months between the wedding and the curse. But personally I also believe more time passed between the wedding and the curse. We just can’t rule out it was just the nine months.

    Regina dies.
    Emma kills Regina and becomes evil.

    That would really shock me. The other things truly not. I somehow expect that. I hope not, but I can live with it … Yet, Regina dying or even more drastic, Emma actually killing her. Impossible. x_X
    No need for discussion about the promo, there are other topics for that and I know some think it’s not a dream. 🙂

    I like how after you get sorted you learn a bunch of stuff about your house (things not in the books). Coolest part of Hufflepuff: it never originated a dark wizard! All other houses did, but not Hufflepuff. 🙂
